Build velocity pool?

[Muddyboots]

So what do you think of this thought? I will be putting my new build together shortly with Remage .270 Win 27" 1:8 5R Light palma using 156HH as main bullet. I was thinking it would be fun to have a pool for maximum velocity without ejector marks. Once max velocity is reached, 5 shot average. Whoever hits the average velocity either closest or spot on gets box of Hornady .308 178 ELDX NIB. If there are multiple guesses spot on, will place names on paper for hat draw.

The load will be defined but will be with RL26, Fed215, trying Sig Sauer brass (new and yeah I know) plus COAL will be set.

What do you think? We need some fun! Comments to make this better welcomed.

3007 FPS I believe RL-26 will get more velocity than expected

I will go out on a limb here 3120

270 Weatherby velocity or 270 AI can1010, but who knows you could be right 27" barrel……

3082 I'm throwing a number just based on others responses. I know nothing about the cartridge and never looked at any load data.

 

[500mag_guy]

3165fps

 

[Jud96]

3126fps

RL26 in the 270 Win is amazing and with a 27" barrel and Hammers you will 3205 before you see an extractor mark. I got to 3230 from a 24" barrel and Nosler 140Gr. B-tips and stopped. I have a good node 3198 and that's what I'm loading. I am using W-W brass though and WLR primers. Great pool by the way!

I'm going to guess 3150 as I'm looking at doing this same thang with a 26inch barrel and it would be great to even get 3000 fps
